IMG_20130822_043000.jpg Hard to really get a look but theres plenty of pics on my journal, the wreck is in the back right corner has about 16 tops on her and day 16 or so of flower with a 60 day veg.As for my ladyburn it was a freebee also have her cloned in case i like the smoke but i topped this thing too much even after cleaning her under carriage out shes a branchy mess i mean like a 1962 afro.

...here's a shot of the wreck for you from this morning, well two shots one with the flouro setting on just using my cell so sorry one day ill invest in a decent camera.IMG_20130823_035057.jpgIMG_20130823_035202.jpg

well drip canceled for the moment.
i cant get things to run proper.

broke out the baddest pump i had ...the basement pump the flood out your window pump ...type pump.

no changes.

500gph same.

i utilized the 1/4" line to make a manifold with the barb "t" in a linear fashion... little line (measured of course) ...barb tee... little line barb tee.

one facing this way , one facing that way.

seems simple enough.

but now im thinking i shudda utilized the tee and made a manifold in a branching manner.

line to tee ...new line from the left ...one from the right... tee in the left for two more line ...tee in the right for two more lines.

am i correct with this idea.

less linear ... more branchy "y" type manifold.

so gud in that set up would you run it on a timer or just run it non stop with some pro air pumps on the rez?

i think thats how I'm gonna roll but with 80% perlite 20% coco

it would be more of a recirculating system at that point tho. any reason to do that i guess? just run the waste to the sump hole?

She will branch out for sho. I suggest cutting lower 1/3 of lower bud growth if you want more solid buds on top. Well that's if you don't mind popcorn.

hellraizer is , if y'all dont know , a ton of information.

he sent me a DTW link here at RIU.
I'm considering doing exactly that... My new coco mix is kicking so much friggin ass, really considering getting rid of the Hydroton now. My one ebb table already converted by accident, flowering a bunch of mums so couldn't run it 'flow style. Well impressed so far. Savings on nutes and effort are pretty big really. No more res changes once a bloody week either. I'm a stubborn bastard so it's hard to let go of the 'flow, but results are speaking for themselves and I have to listen. Can finally see the big deal with DTW. Only thing holding me back is I like how fast I can tweak plant health in 'flow by adding this or that. Getting a handle on the coco though so yeah time's a comin' for the change.

i love ebb & flow.
its just that when u grow bunches & bunches & bunches evolution of technique follows.

i cant think of anything more inefficient in a 5' 10" basement (basically 2 meter high) than giving 18"+ to a rez.

as ive said , growing clones like plants isnt logical.
al b fukt is not 100% on point... been doing his method for 2 years.

^ not that its his method PLEASE. not even.

all my lab does is evolve.
getting divorced & moving to my current home is a challenge only in discovering how to get the most from my sq. footage.

im a firm believer that you cant dictate how to grow in a space , the space tells you.

ebb/flow works in my lab.
works great. however it forces me to grow clones like their plants.

but the last year i've purposely experimented growing in coco to expand my skill set.

adding the rockwool crutons is smart , cost effective , very functional , and a way of re-purposing something that im no longer interested in doing.

DTW works better.
lets me have larger plants.
lets me grow less plants for + yield.
let's me use way less nutes and water.
lets me automate. let me simplify. etc. etc.

my lab is telling me there are advantages.

& all i have to do is listen.

All this talk about hydro makes me miss ebb and flow well not really its just interesting how it has evolved.
